Our Family Favorite Cranberry Relish

There are cranberry sauce people and there are cranberry relish people.  My mom is a cranberry relish person and this is the recipe she always serves with her turkey.  It’s the perfect blend of tart and sweet.  This recipe makes a large batch so you can half it or freeze half if you serve turkey for Christmas as well.  It freezes well!
